Chapter 11

With only the light from the stairs, Mia watched Cy move in the darkened room, smooth and graceful like a panther. She rolled over on the floor to watch him. He dropped his backpack into the chair, reached for the top button on the fly of his Levi’s, and kicked off his sandals. He caught her gaze and a seductive smile curled the corners of his mouth.

He was partially backlit. She could only guess like in a strip club. Her own private Chippendale dancer that she’d seen on TV once, and not one who was just pretending, but a real fireman to boot.

A really hot fireman.

Maybe her luck was starting to change. Cy lifted the edge of his -T-shirt to give her a peek and ran a hand slowly over his hard stomach. He trailed fingers across muscled abs, then over the trail of dark hair that led lower until his fingers reached the zipper tab.

Was he grinning?

Her mouth went dry and her pulse pounded. Cy was the sexiest man she’d ever seen, and he was here, in front of her, stripping. Was she still awake? Maybe she’d better pinch herself to make sure?

He slid the zipper slowly down and pushed the jeans down his marbled thighs causing Mia to squirm under the blanket.

Cy’s grin turned devilish. “Boxers.” But then he apologized, “Sorry.” The large bulge of his erection tented forward. The outline of him was hard as steel and pressed toward the waistband. “Sorry, not sorry. When I’m around you, I’m always hard. I can’t control that part of me, it has a mind of its own.” His gaze burned her. “And it’s a turn-on that you are watching me.”

“You’re turned on, have you looked at yourself?”

“No. No mirror close by.” Cy shrugged. “Never been into that.”

“Are you doing this on purpose?” she asked, and heard her voice shake as she spoke.

A smile spread to his handsome face and he said innocently, “This is the way I sleep. You can’t expect me to sleep in my jeans, can you? But if you keep looking at me like that, I’m not sure if the boxers are staying on.” He folded the jeans in a neat pile, and then pulled something else from the bag before dropping it back on to the chair.

“You don’t have to sleep on the floor. You can sleep on the bed.” She flicked her head to the other side of the room.

Cy had brought another blanket, similar to the one he had draped over her. He smoothed it on the floor and then lay down on it. “Alone? When I just figured out a way to do it? No way, you’re not getting rid of me that easily. Here, come closer, so you’re not lying on concrete.” Cy stretched out his long, six-foot-plus body and groaned. “It’s been a long day. I can’t wait to have a few days off. I’m beat. What about your day?”

“Isn’t this what married couples sound like at night?” Mia propped a hand up under her head.
